CLATsyllabus has been changed and to give you a gist of the changed syllabus. The no.of questions asked will be reduced from 200 to 150 but the time duration will be the same

English: There will be no more direct vocabulary questions

GK: Static GK will be removed and only your knowledge on current affairs will be tested: This includes happenings around the world in the fields of politics, geography, climate, sports, awards, international and national happenings.

Mathematics: Only DI based questions. Here you should rely on the 10th Mathematics standards.

Logical Reasoning: More emphasis on critical reasoning questions. Comparison of data, Data Analysis, taking clues, interpreting missing data, coming to conclusions and making future projections will be covered under this Category. The questions here are interlinked and so if you get one formula correct, cracking the next few questions will be easy. So it's important to memorise and practise formulae. You should cover topics like Data tables, Data Charts, Bar Diagrams, Pie Charts, Graphs, Data Comparison and Analysis come under this section.

Legal Aptitude: No Legal GK questions but the reasoning questions will remain. You should practise on topics like General Theory of law of torts, Contracts and Criminal law and Constitution and Polity.

You can check that at: https://law.careers360.com/articles/how-prepare-for-clat-legal-aptitude-section-harsh-gagrani Now that we do not have access to buying books, you should go back to the old school of learning. Turn to News Papers, turn to Legal section and learn the jargons and try to learn the meaning and where they can be used. Because the highest qualification required for CLAT is 12th, it is understood that you come with zero legal knowledge and so the questions wouldn't be that tough. You may be asked questions on fact basis to test your legal reasoning. Law of Tort, Law of Contracts, Criminal Law, Constitutional law, Intellectual property law, Labour law, International law and family law are few subjects you should familiarize yourself with.  Get a gist of these laws and you will be fine. Practise as many as sample papers as you can. Few of them can be accessed at: https://law.careers360.com/download/clat-sample-papers-previous-years

HELLO,

No not same , the legal apttitude section in law entrances check your legal "reasoning", not legal "knowledge". ...Legal Reasoning questions focus on legal propositions, where a set of facts are given along with a principle of law.

The more significant change is that there will be no legal aptitude section in CLAT 2020.

Books are best for CLAT
